Contextual Overview

1 Now when David lived in his house, he said to Nathan the special preacher, "See, I am living in a house of cedar wood. But the special box with the Law of the Lord is under a tent." 2 Nathan said to David, "Do all that is in your heart. For God is with you." 3 But that same night the Word of the Lord came to Nathan, saying, 4 "Go and tell My servant David, ‘This is what the Lord says. "You will not build a house for Me to live in. 5 For I have not lived in a house since the day I brought up Israel to this day. But I have gone from tent to tent and from one place to another to live. 6 In all the places I have gone with all Israel, have I said a word to any of the judges of Israel about this? Have I said to anyone whom I told to watch over My people, ‘Why have you not built a house of cedar wood for Me?'"' 7 So now say to My servant David, ‘The Lord of All says, "I took you from the field, from following the sheep, to be leader over My people Israel. 8 I have been with you in every place you have gone. I have destroyed in front of you all those who hate you. And I will make your name to be known like the name of the great ones of the earth. 9 I will choose a place for My people Israel, and will plant them. So they will live in their own place and not be moved again. Never again will they be under the power of sinful men, as they were before, 10 from the time that I told judges to rule My people Israel. I will put under your power all those who hate you. And I say to you that the Lord will build a house for you.
